Newsletters - From the Heart Stitchers

Newsletter - September 2010 <<View and Print>>

The Retreat is just a couple weeks away, September 18, 2010! I’m so excited about putting our first ever From the Heart book into your hands! It’s an actual book! It has come together wonderfully with help from many of you!

We have so many other wonderful, exciting experiences planned for you that day as well. Attendees will be introduced to machine knitting and see some of the most awesome projects created very quickly. Our instructor, Tamara, has in the past knitted many prayer shawls for us. She can create a large one in about an hour! And loves making them using Lion Brand Homespun!

This year we have several interesting projects going on. We are planning an instruction area for knitters and crocheters with help in learning to make those fantastic embellishments we see on some of the finished items that come through the shop. We are setting up a problem solving area to help stitchers with any problems they may be having. You can bring in a project that has you confused or one with a mistake you are not sure how to correct. You can even ask for lessons on learning a technique you are interested in or maybe pattern reading may be causing problems.

We’ll have a table full of beautiful yarn that may be obtained with the offer of a donation. At the book exchange table you may leave your no longer needed books and pick up some of more interest to you. We will have 3 vendors set up with many of their wares, lot of things to consider for yourself or to be given as gifts.

We will be learning needle felting using pot holders stitched and felted in advance, ready for embellishing with wool rovings which will be provided for you.

Remember how quickly September 18th is slipping up on us. Please fill in your registration form, select your choice of lunch and mail in the form and fee as soon as possible and remind your friends to send in theirs as well. Your registration fee entitles you to a free copy of our new book; however, if you would like additional copies you may purchase them for the actual cost of printing which is just $7.00 each.

The location is just a short 4 mile drive through beautiful Powhatan County. The hours are from 10 until 4. This is the perfect time to be with your friends, meet other From the Heart members and learn just about anything you’d like to know about knitting or crocheting.

See you at the Retreat!!
